Dual therapy for amanita phalloides-induced acute liver failure in mice: A combination of etanercept and alpha-1 antitrypsin

Florian Maria Wurm

Background The toxin α-amanitin from Amanita phalloides induces hepatocyte death and disrupts local and systemic immune responses, key drivers of acute liver failure (ALF). Although TNF-α plays a central role in ALF, TNF-α-targeted therapies alone have sho ...

Enhanced Plasmid DNA Utilization in Transiently Transfected CHO-DG44 Cells in the Presence of Polar Solvents

Florian Maria Wurm, David Hacker, Lucia Baldi Unser, Yashas Rajendra, Divor Kiseljak, Sowmya Balasubramanian

Although the protein yields from transient gene expression (TGE) with Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells have recently improved, the amount of plasmid DNA (pDNA) needed for transfection remains relatively high. We describe a strategy to reduce the pDNA amou ...

Structural analysis of intact monoclonal antibodies by electron transfer dissociation mass spectrometry

Florian Maria Wurm, Yury Tsybin, Luca Fornelli

Improving qualitative and quantitative characterization of monoclonal antibodies is essential, because of their increasing popularity as therapeutic drug targets. Electron transfer dissociation (ETD)-based top-down mass spectrometry (MS) is the method of c ...

Sustained activation and tumor targeting of NKT cells using a CD1d-anti-HER2-scFv fusion protein induce antitumor effects in mice

Florian Maria Wurm, Lucia Baldi Unser

Invariant NKT (iNKT) cells are potent activators of DCs, NK cells, and T cells, and their antitumor activity has been well demonstrated. A single injection of the high-affinity CD1d ligand α-galactosylceramide (αGalCer) leads to short-lived iNKT cell activ ...
